The Brass Inserts M4 x 8mm are precision-engineered heat-set threaded insert nuts designed for creating strong, reusable threads in plastic components. Made from high-quality brass, these inserts offer excellent thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and mechanical strength. Ideal for 3D printing projects, plastic enclosures, and embedded systems, they ensure a secure and professional-grade fastening solution.
These inserts are typically installed using a soldering iron or heat press, melting slightly into the plastic to form a durable bond. Their knurled exterior allows for maximum grip inside the material, preventing rotation or pull-out during repeated screw insertions.
